Weighing in on the resignation of Democratic Congresswoman Katie Hill Monday, MSNBC host Chris Hayes complained that her departure from Congress is proof that "the bad guys won here." In addition to recycling the talking points recited by other talking heads about the supposed double standard Hill has to face because of her gender, Hayes's guest for the segment, Fordham University Professor Christina Greer, trashed The Daily Mail and Red State for publishing nude photos of Hill. When Greer described the publications as "certain journalistic outlets," Hayes jumped in: "if you can call them that." Greer accused the publications of committing "technological domestic violence" by publishing nude photos of Hill.   Hayes agreed with Greer: "Red State and Daily Mail, I think, are the two outlets that published this and like, that decision to me is just utterly and completely indefensible. You are essentially complicit in a...crime and a statutory violation."
